Dynamic ankle foot orthoses WalkOn Reaction Lateral 28U34 Ottobock

The orthoses in the WalkOn product range are particularly lightweight and comfortable to wear thanks to their anatomical design. For an optimal fit, the soles can generally be trimmed to size using ordinary scissors. 

Indications:

• mild impairment of the plantar flexor musculature,
• mild impairment of knee extension or drop foot with or without mild to moderate spasticity, e.g. caused by:
• Stroke
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Multiple sclerosis
• Neuromuscular atrophy
• Peroneal paralysis
• Infantile cerebral palsy (ICP

Features:

• Effectively supports a physiological gait, even at different speeds and with different loads
• Supports dorsiflexion (ground clearance)
• Stabilises the knee and ankle joints using ground reaction forces
• Energy return supports toe-off and heel strike
• Fewer compensating movements
• Noticeably longer support element makes it pos- sible to exert greater influence on deviations of the frontal axis in the knee and ankle joints
• High energy return of the orthosis
• Reduces the risk of stumbling and falling
• Prevents uncontrolled foot contact and foot drop
• Highly dynamic characteristics
